All Calcium Supplements Are Not Created Equal
! All forms of calcium are NOT created
equal! Calcium lactate and calcium phosphate are like plaster.
Calcium carbonate is like chalk. Why do we say that? It is
because only 5% of the Calcium is absorbable in 20 hours. Calcium
carbonate makes good plant fertilizer, but it is not the best for human
bodies.
In most 1000 mg calcium capsules found in health stores
today, 600 mg is carbonate, which is absolutely unusable, and the rest is
unusable except for about 40 mg. That is why people who take
"Calcium" are still sick. The form of Calcium they are taking
is unacceptable and provides very little benefit.
Is all Coral Calcium from Okinawa the Same? According to Stephen
Holt, MD, author of 8 books on nutrition, there are many different
Coral Calcium products on the market today. The one you want is Okinawa
Coral Calcium. He explained that the Okinawa Coral Calcium comes from
two sources. It could be coral that was washed up on the beaches of the
islands, or it can be coral removed from the sea bed. The Coral Calcium
that is found on the beaches is fossilized coral and has lost a lot of its
strength over the years of weathering. Coral
Calcium 1 is mined freshly from the sea bed which has the same
nutrients that is found in the living coral. Mining of Ocean Bed Coral
is done by an underwater vacuuming operation and is closely monitored by the
Japanese Government to insure that the living coral reefs are not harmed in
any way. It is interesting to note that damaging the coral reef in any
way leads to criminal prosecution. After the coral sands are removed
from the base of the living coral, the coral flourishes. Coral Calcium 1 has the perfect calcium to
magnesium ratio (approximately 2 to 1) and has added Vitamin D (800 I.U.) to
help your body more readily absorb the other types of calcium you get from
other sources daily. Other products do not have our certified marine
grade, potency, magnesium, 100% absorbability. Coral Calcium 1 is the one of the best
values out there!
Coral Calcium 1 is a source of
minerals with a superior nutrient profile compared to fossilized coral or
"teabag" enclosed coral as explained in Robert Barefoot's book.
pH is the abbreviation for potential
hydrogen. The pH of any solution is the measure of its hydrogen-ion
concentration. The higher the pH reading, the more alkaline and oxygen
rich the fluid is. The lower the pH reading, the more acidic and oxygen
deprived the fluid is. The pH range is from 0 to 14, with 7.0 being
neutral. Anything above 7.0 is alkaline, anything below 7.0 is
considered acidic.
Coral calcium doesn't cure disease. It simply keeps
the pH level of our body fluids in sync so the body fights disease naturally,
like it was meant to do. The following list will help you determine what
your level of acidity (pH) may be. Symptoms are divided into categories
ranging from beginning to advanced. Please note this is a partial list due to the number of symptoms
in each category. This information was taken directly from Dr. Baroody's book,
Alkalize or Die.
